Generation of Box-Cox based ROC curves and several aspects of inferences and hypothesis testing. Can be used when inferences for one biomarker (Bantis LE, Nakas CT, Reiser B. (2018)<doi:10.1002/bimj.201700107>) are of interest or when comparisons of two correlated biomarkers (Bantis LE, Nakas CT, Reiser B. (2021)<doi:10.1002/bimj.202000128>) are of interest. Provides inferences and comparisons around the AUC, the Youden index, the sensitivity at a given specificity level (and vice versa), the optimal operating point of the ROC curve (in the Youden sense), and the Youden based cutoff.

Turns regression models inside out. Functions decompose variances and coefficients for various regression model types. Functions also visualize regression model objects using techniques developed in Schoon, Melamed, and Breiger (2024) <doi:10.1017/9781108887205>.

The Stochastic Dominance (SD) is the classical way of comparing two random prospects, using their distribution functions. Almost Stochastic Dominance (ASD) has also been developed to cover the SD failures due to the extreme utility functions. This package focuses on classical and heuristic methods for testing the first and second SD and ASD methods given the probability mass function (PMF) of the random prospects. The goal is to apply these methods easily, efficiently, and effectively on real-world datasets. For more details see Hanoch and Levy (1969) <doi:10.2307/2296431>, Leshno and Levy (2002) <doi:10.1287/mnsc.48.8.1074.169>, and Tzeng et al. (2012) <doi:10.1287/mnsc.1120.1616>.

Iterative least cost path and minimum spanning tree methods for projecting forest road networks. The methods connect a set of target points to an existing road network using igraph <https://igraph.org> to identify least cost routes. The cost of constructing a road segment between adjacent pixels is determined by a user supplied weight raster and a weight function; options include the average of adjacent weight raster values, and a function of the elevation differences between adjacent cells that penalizes steep grades. These road network projection methods are intended for integration into R workflows and modelling frameworks used for forecasting forest change, and can be applied over multiple time-steps without rebuilding a graph at each time-step.

Convex Least Squares Programming (CLSP) is a two-step estimator for solving underdetermined, ill-posed, or structurally constrained least-squares problems. It combines pseudoinverse-based estimation with convex-programming correction methods inspired by Lasso, Ridge, and Elastic Net to ensure numerical stability, constraint enforcement, and interpretability. The package also provides numerical stability analysis and CLSP-specific diagnostics, including partial R^2, normalized RMSE (NRMSE), Monte Carlo t-tests for mean NRMSE, and condition-number-based confidence bands.

This package implements popular methods for matching in time-varying observational studies. Matching is difficult in this scenario because participants can be treated at different times which may have an influence on the outcomes. The core methods include: "Balanced Risk Set Matching" from Li, Propert, and Rosenbaum (2011) <doi:10.1198/016214501753208573> and "Propensity Score Matching with Time-Dependent Covariates" from Lu (2005) <doi:10.1111/j.1541-0420.2005.00356.x>. Some functions use the Gurobi optimization back-end to improve the optimization problem speed; the gurobi R package and associated software can be downloaded from <https://www.gurobi.com> after obtaining a license.

Fit and simulate any kind of physiologically-based kinetic ('PBK') models whatever the number of compartments. Moreover, it allows to account for any link between pairs of compartments, as well as any link of each of the compartments with the external medium. Such generic PBK models have today applications in pharmacology (PBPK models) to describe drug effects, in toxicology and ecotoxicology (PBTK models) to describe chemical substance effects. In case of exposure to a parent compound (drug or chemical) the rPBK package allows to consider metabolites, whatever their number and their phase (I, II, ...). Last but not least, package rPBK can also be used for dynamic flux balance analysis (dFBA) to deal with metabolic networks. See also Charles et al. (2022) <doi:10.1101/2022.04.29.490045>.
